This thread is nerd shit (nothing personal). You are proposing the Heat trade the greatest player in the history of their franchise just because he's had a statistical decline that is largely just the result of decreased minutes. From a pure ball standpoint I'd deal him for Dwight Howard or the top pick if Davis is coming out. But unless the trade brings in a dominant presence in the paint you'd better think twice before you trade a guy who is almost always in the top 10 of NBA players.

So you really want to trade the guy that brought your franchise their one and only title? Wade's as efficient as ever from the field, his stats might look down but that's a result of reduced minutes and a slow start. With Wade gone, how are you guys going to close out games in the 4th? If you really want to break up this team that bad, deal LeBron instead, for a dominant post player.
